  • Description

  • Notes

'Herbstonne' is an impressive Rudbeckia, growing 5 to 7 feet tall and about half as wide. It has warm yellow flowers, smaller than R. fulgida but maybe more numerous. The petals are recurved and surround a green central disc. Leaves are lance-like to oval and deep green. Plant at the back of the border with Buddleia, Joe-pye weed, taller ornamental grasses, and boltonia for an outstanding mid to late summer display.
